ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The highly anticipated return of Kathryn Stockett, author of the acclaimed The Help.
Unforgettable, moving, and luminous.
The rebellion of a group of women underestimated by everyone.
Mississippi, 1933. Eleven-year-old Meg lives in an orphanage since her mother vanished one Christmas Eve without a trace. Over time, the hope that she will return fades, and Meg is eventually adopted by a family that seems to embody the perfect dream.
Birdie, a strong and rebellious young woman, arrives in Oxford during the Great Depression to seek help from her sister, now married to an influential high-society banker. Her goal is clear: to save the family estate and escape the ruin that threatens to consume everything.
Fate brings Birdie together with Charlie, Meg's mother, a woman determined to fight against any obstacle to reclaim her daughter. United by necessity and the rage of those who have nothing left to lose, they will lead a group of women ready to defy the rules, break the silence, and fight for their own future in a society that insists on relegating them to the shadows.
A powerful story of sisterhood and female resistance, inspired by real events and set in Mississippi in 1933, during the Great Depression.
